I LOVE your story!! I got SO excited after I heard your story that I cannot wait to begin to 'give'! I do tend to give a lot now and I feel that anything positive helps one move along a much better path.
I have had MS for 28 years and was told when I was diagnosed in November 1981 at Duke Univ. Med. Center that "I WOULD be totally confined to a wheelchair WITHIN FIVE YEARS". I had just turned 24 years old and I KNEW that just WOULD NOT HAPPEN!! I chose at that point to live my life in a 'Positive Manner" and to shun anything negative but to cling to the positive. After 28 years with MS (as of last month) I have never spent a day in a wheelchair and my friends LOVE "My 'Tude" (referring to my Attitude!!)! Sure, I get down some days because I've also been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, Myofascial Pain Syndrome, Chronic Pain, CFS and several others! One loses count after a while BUT I cannot "give in"! I also spend some days in bed but when I do feel like going, I GO!! ~ and I keep the Positive 'Tude!!
Bless You Cami. I love the manner in which your health changed so much. Indeed, I love your idea of giving and I would love to get on the bandwagon and make others smile like I know they would....especially this time of the year!!
Hugs!
Joni

- Wonderful! Thank you for posting! This must be the TV show my first gift recipient must have been talking about when she said she saw the book on TV. I gave the 29 Gifts book (which I read 2 days prior to giving it as a gift) on day one of my 29-days-of-giving.

I am thankful for a supportive and loving family.
